Jones Day

‘Working at the top end of civil fraud’, Jones Day’s practice is increasingly involved in matters concerning the Middle East, India and offshore jurisdictions. With over half of the firm’s 45-lawyer-strong London global disputes team focused on complex fraud, asset recovery, investigations and enforcement matters, the practice consistently brings and defends serious fraud claims, along with tracing misappropriated assets. It is experienced in obtaining freezing, search and disclosure orders (in support of both domestic and foreign proceedings), and additionally assists with enforcement matters. Focused on major fraud, asset tracing and corruption investigations (including contentious insolvency disputes), global disputes team head Sion Richards also leads the firm’s global enforcement and asset recovery group; offshore disputes team head Barnaby Stueck is ‘a highly experienced civil fraud litigator with an encyclopaedic knowledge of the law’; Annabel Treadgold is experienced in civil fraud and asset recovery matters that frequently involve injunctive relief; and Daniel Travers has extensive experience in international fraud matters, including corporate insolvency-related fraud cases. Other active figures are ’top-notch strategist’ Karl Moussalli and experienced litigators Daniel Moore and Dhanraj Misra. Promoted to partner in 2024, James Fidler focuses on fraud cases, investigations, asset tracing, and judgment enforcement.
